Does the yarn really have to be made with cashmere?
2025-09-23
No. The raw materials for the yarn could be:
-
Any fiber—such as cotton, viscose, polyester, or acrylic—that can be processed into particles measuring 0.5 to 3 mm in size
-
Recycled materials—such as chopped-top yarn and clean short-fiber scraps—are often used to create "rugged-style" bouclé yarns due to their inherent cotton knots and low cost.
-
High-end knitwear is crafted from 100% cashmere fibers, offering a soft touch and beautiful sheen—but at a significantly higher price.
In a nutshell: Cashmere isn’t a “get-out-of-jail-free card”—it’s simply the most expensive route.
If you want to go upscale, go for cashmere—put "lightweight, warm, and soft" right on the label!
If you want that ethereal vibe, switch to alpaca or kid mohair—long fibers naturally exude a magical charm, and the cost drops dramatically right away.
If you want volume, go straight for ultra-fine merino or viscose-wool blends—soft enough to the touch, yet priced at just a fraction of cashmere.
Further down the line, acrylic "cashmere-like" fabric is priced at 40 yuan per kilogram—and with the right livestream pitch, it can even sell just like "baby cashmere" does.
So, set the price first, then choose the fiber—don’t let cashmere hold your creativity hostage.
